ABOUT GIRLVENTURES

GirlVentures' mission is to empower adolescent girls to develop and express their

strengths. We explore self, community, culture, and environment through outdoor

adventure and experiential education, creative arts, and group experiences. GirlVentures

offers girls the opportunity to make thoughtful, strategic decisions, develop effective

communication and leadership skills, become strong allies, and build healthier

communities.

Serving diverse girls ages 11-18 from eight Bay Area counties, GirlVentures recruits

participants who are varied in experience, ethnicity, race and socio-economic background.

This rich diversity provides a rare opportunity for girls to embrace what makes each of

trust, diversity, community and leadership.
